HEALTHY CHOCOLATE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix together the sifted flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the milk, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla.
• Add the wet ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Don't overmix.
• Add the mini chocolate chips, if using, and stir gently to incorporate them.
• Heat a griddle or large saute pan over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray and pour about 1/4 cup of the batter at a time. You'll be able to get 4-5 on a two-burner griddle and 3 in a large skillet at a time.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, until the edges are cooked through and the middle of each pancake is bubbling. (If your stove cooks unevenly, you may want to turn your pan during the cooking time.)
• Carefully flip each pancake (it will release from the pan easily if it's ready to flip) and cook an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until cooked through.
• Remove cooked pancakes to a plate or place in the oven to keep warm while you repeat. Note: I spray the pan/griddle with cooking spray in between each batch. I also find I need to reduce the heat a little as I continue to cook the pancakes so as not to burn them.
• Serve with strawberries, mini chocolate chips, maple syrup or powdered sugar, as desired. Enjoy!

WHOLE-GRAIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, cornmeal, oats, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a medium bowl, mix together buttermilk, eggs, melted butter and honey. Mix the egg mixture into the flour mixture until smooth.
• Heat a griddle or large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Check to see if it's hot by sprinkling a few drops of water on the surface. They should sizzle and evaporate immediately.
• Add a little butter to the pan and let it melt. Pour about 1/3 cup batter onto skillet; repeat to cook as many at one time as you can, leaving space for each pancake to spread.
• Cook until bubbles form and start to burst, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate as they finish, and serve immediately with maple syrup and more butter on top, if you like.
• Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
